daughter. He enjoyed, as a child, the adventures of Enid Blyton and since those early days has regularly visited Cornwall in the south-west of England,
where so many of her books were set. Therefore, it was perhaps inevitable that he should set his début novel in this same location. After selling his last
pub business in 2010, he decided to commit fully to writing and moved the family to the county that has inspired him, to live in the picturesque fishing
village of Polperro.
Having travelled extensively, he has a keen interest in world affairs and this has infused him with a desire to draw the attention of young readers to the
crises affecting children in some of the poorest and most deprived areas on the planet. His intention is to take his main character, Reece Winner, to one
such location in each subsequent book.
He and his wife Juren have sponsored the education of three young relations in The Philippines and hope that his writing can enable them to achieve other
humanitarian ambitions in the parts of the world depicted in future stories.view less
